Do you do any water changes?
And if you’re willing to share, what do you keep your iodine levels at?
I agree on the iodine. Since starting Moonshiners and dosing iodine up to 75-80 I’ve noticed a big improvement in coral health.Occasional small water changes to siphon detritus that accumulates in back corners.
Iodine target 50-90ug/l. It is taken up by algae so in a system with macros it can be more difficult to maintain. I know most consider Iodine to be inconsequential, but I find it extremely important.
Another important addition is twice monthly dosing of Hydrospace ProBio.

I’ve been thinking about adding ProBio dosing to my regimen. Do you follow the dosing instructions on the bottle
